I'd picked up The Trouser Press Guide to 90s Rock (5th Ed) at an antique shop but it's frankly over 800 wasted pages more of discography lists than anything else. Printed in 1997, a 3-second Google search will reveal far more useful information than anything from this mammoth text.

Far more inspiring was my return to my copy of Audio Culture: Readings in Modern Music (2004). The book is a fantastic collection of music manifestos spanning the ages of Futurism to Minimalism to Free Jazz and on into Techno. Every featured paper is an exciting and satisfying read.
